I love reading. I read more than three hours a day. I hope to encourage someone to read the books I discuss. My favorite genres are classics, plays, children's books, and short stories.

Heartbreak House
This was an ok George Bernard Shaw about the upper class during World War I and the disguises they use.The plot involves Ellie Dunn and her love triangle with a married man and a man who it turns out isn't as rich as he pretends to be. The plot also concerns a burglar. It was more eccentric than the other Shaw plays I have read but I liked it better than Man and Superman because it didn't have an unnecessary act that came out of nowhere. I doubt I'll read it again. I would have liked to see Orson Welles as Captain Shotover. He was in a production in this play in in the 1930s.
